On this international match day, Yang Xiaozhuang also returned to China to participate in two games in the second round of the World Cup qualifiers, scoring one goal in each game, helping the national football team to score a 1 draw and 1 victory. Finally, he won the top spot in the second group in the second round of the World Cup qualifiers.

After this, Yang Xiaozhuang will probably not play for the national football team for a long time, because... Yu Linbao will start a battle against the national football team's overall environment as planned.

Next, Yang Xiaozhuang will announce at the right time that he temporarily withdrew from the national football team and wait for the domestic football environment to be re-rected before playing for the country again.

Even Yu Linbao had made a reason for Yang Xiaozhuang...to concentrate on playing football!

Returning to the league, Manchester United seemed to have been hit by a large-scale attack by the FIFA virus. They lost to Huddersfield a goal away in the next league. Although it would not have any impact on Manchester United's position in the standings, they still lost.

However, in the next UEFA Champions League group stage and the 13th round of the Premier League, Manchester United defeated Leipzig two goals away and defeated the "Magpie" Newcastle 3-0 at home.

As the best team in Europe in the past two seasons, the "Red Devils" still maintain their strong posture in the league and the Champions League, locking in the top spot in the group stage one round ahead of schedule, and always maintaining a leading position in the league standings.

"Blue Moon" seems to be affected by the good news that the team signed Haaland for 100 million euros. They caught up in the standings again. After the 13th round of the league, they returned to the second place in the standings, and there was only a three-point gap between them and Manchester United, which was the top.

Even De Bruyne, as Manchester City's number one star, has begun to build momentum for Haaland: "We all know that Haaland is a very good guy. His arrival will definitely bring a lot of different things to the team. At least his ability to attack will make it easier for us to win in many games! There is still one month before he joins the team, so let's look forward to what will happen in a month!"

In a month, of course, many things will happen...

Manchester United first defeated Aston Villa 8-1 at home in the league, and then defeated Zenit 7-2 at home to complete the last Champions League group stage. Then they went to London to play against Tottenham at the New White Hart Lane Stadium and scored 1:3.

Afterwards, Manchester United went to Saudi Arabia to play the Club World Cup...

Although the "Red Devils" have played very, very many games recently, the team has a decisive force like Yang Xiaozhuang, and the strength of other players is quite good. In addition, Solskjaer and Manchester United coaching staff have been thinking about the schedule and arrangement of troops all day long, so the team's performance is still very ideal.

In Saudi Arabia, Manchester United defeated Saudi Hillal 4:0 with Yang Xiaozhuang's hat trick in the semi-finals, and then defeated Argentina Athletics 7:0 in the final, completing the defending title against the Club World Cup very easily and leaving with a pocket of bonus.

Although they made a lot of money in Saudi Arabia, Manchester United began to feel the pressure in the Premier League... Because of two games in the fewer games, Manchester United has been overtaken by the "Blue Moon" in the standings, and there is currently a three-point difference between the two teams.

Even the English media are cheering up Manchester City...

"Marcelona's performance has been getting better and better recently. Guardiola's team has been in full form. In the winter transfer period, they will also usher in the biggest strong aid of the season. Norwegian talented center Haaland from Salzburg Red Bulls, which will also make Manchester City more competitive. The Premier League battle this season is far from over."

"Marcelona's condition has become better and better recently. If Manchester United cannot always perform strongly in the future, the ownership of the league championship this season will remain suspense for a long time!"

"Guardiola's team finally ushered in a big explosion this season. Their tactics have been made into shape. Once Haaland joins, the last piece of Guardiola's ideal team will be put together. In the next two or three years, Manchester City will inevitably launch the strongest challenge to the city's rival Manchester United, and at the same time, they will also launch an unprecedented impact on the Champions League trophy."

"China's Yang and Manchester United will be challenged by strong opponents in the same city. Although many people think that Manchester City spends up to 100 million euros to introduce Haaland is a risk, but at present, the performance of this Norwegian talented center in Salzburg is indeed worth 100 million euros. If Haaland can fully realize his talent under Guardiola's guidance, he will inevitably become the next super player and he will become a goal-scoring monster!"

No one knows how strong Haaland is, but Manchester City has...turned in the last game before the New Year!

At the Hawthorn Stadium, although Manchester City had Selch Roberto and Belotti scored goals respectively, they still unexpectedly tied with West Bromvic 2:2 away. Although this draw did not pull Manchester City from the leader, the gap between them and Manchester United has narrowed to 1 point.

Moreover, this is because Manchester City played two more rounds of games, otherwise they might have been 5 points behind Manchester United in the standings!

In the last two rounds of the league, Manchester United won a complete victory because of the outstanding performance of the "King". He scored 5 goals in two games. Yang Xiaozhuang almost carried the "Red Devils" and continued to move forward, move forward, and move forward...

So far, Yang Xiaozhuang has scored 33 goals in 17 games for Manchester United, 20 more goals than Harry Kane, who ranked second in the scorer list!

This is enough to prove how important it is for a team to have a super player. Even if others are in poor condition, if the super player is in good condition and may even have only played 80% of his ability, he may bring a victory to his team.

In China, Yu Linbao has begun to attack the Football Association. He has provided a lot of text information, video information, recordings, etc., revealing all the scandals and shady stories in the domestic football circle. Even so, in Lin Bao's words, it is just the tip of the iceberg!

Before waiting for the official to respond, some of the players Yu Linbao had contacted before also made their voices, saying that they temporarily refused to play for the national football team, and some even simply sent out some evidence they had at hand.

Domestic football... has become a mess!

As the well-deserved number one star of the national football team, even if he plays in England, it is impossible for him to stay out of the matter. Many people even think that if Yang Xiaozhuang is willing to lead the national football team to the East Asian Cup and lead the team to achieve good results, it will suppress many "scandals" and "shady curtains" and the domestic football environment will continue to remain stable.

As a result... Yang Xiaozhuang directly stated in an interview with a domestic reporter that he would temporarily withdraw from the national football team. When the domestic environment is better, he is willing to continue playing for the national football team.

Now, Yu Linbao's final punch in the plan... was finally hit!

As others, the influence of others is not as good as Yang Xiaozhuang. Judging from some known news, this year's World Footballer will definitely belong to him. His performance has always been very outstanding in the past two years. Even the players who won the award are not as good as him. However, for various reasons, Yang Xiaozhuang has never officially become the world's number one star, but now... because of his outstanding performance, there is really nothing to stop him from reaching the top.

Since Yang Xiaozhuang has spoken out, this matter... the official must take a thorough investigation no matter what, and the speed must be fast. Although the East Asian Cup competition is not important, some subsequent games cannot be delayed.

Otherwise... if the national football stars such as Yang Xiaozhuang, Yu Linbao, Wu Lei, Zhang Yuning, Zhang Chengdong, Zeng Cheng, and Jiang Zhipeng are missing, the national football team's performance will definitely plummet, or even collapse directly.

This is true. In the East Asian Cup held at the end of the year, the Chinese national football team only scored 1 win, 1 draw and 1 loss, winning the North Korean team, drawing the South Korean team, losing... Japan team!

Now, domestic fans were anxious. Everyone was calling and waiting, wanting to see the official thorough investigation of the shady scenes of domestic football, and eager to see the final result.

Manchester City spent 100 million to buy Haaland during the winter transfer period, which directly attracted the attention of the entire English football world. Everyone was eager to see what Haaland would perform. Will this suddenly rising Norwegian talented center become another Chinese Yang under Raiola's command?

This time, Raiola really made a big deal. Not only did he successfully operate Haaland to Manchester City, selling up to 100 million yuan in transfer fees, he also obtained a weekly salary of 350,000 pounds for Haaland, and the term of this contract is only two and a half years. After the previous year... Haaland's salary will definitely increase!

It seems that Guardiola himself also wants to see Haaland's true strength, so when he didn't train with the team when he transferred, Haaland was arranged to play in the home game between Manchester City and Tottenham Hotspur on January 1, of course... a substitute!

Haaland replaced Jessus in 78 minutes in this game. Although he only played for more than ten minutes and faced a strong opponent like Tottenham Hotspur, the Norwegian center still performed well. In just over ten minutes, there were passes, shots, and even gave Koeman on the left a beautiful header. Unfortunately, the French winger failed to seize the opportunity to score.

In short... in just over ten minutes, Haaland still made a lot of things and showed his strength.

After the game, the reporters also focused on Haaland, who had no goals and no assists, and all the questions raised to Guardiola were related to Haaland. Guardiola was also very satisfied with his newly introduced center and praised Haaland.

"We all know that Ellin has just transferred to the team, and he has only practiced with the team twice, but he performed very well in today's game. He showed us basic skills and awareness. I believe that when he is familiar with his teammates and when he integrates into the team's tactics, he will definitely perform well and he will bring the team what we want!"

"No one can be sure whether Ellin will become a super player in the future, and I am not sure, but I know very well that he does have such opportunities. He has great potential. His physical condition is the best among the players I have ever seen, and his foot skills are beyond my expectations. Of course, the most important thing is that he is very young and there are countless possibilities in his future, which he needs to grasp by himself."
